If the product is "old" will the picture still come out vibrant looking? Mine came out slightly faded from the original picture. It is a couple years old still in the original package.

I had to change the settings on my printer to be more vibrant. I don't think it had anything to do with how old the pkg. was. Try to darken your image before printing and "up" the color tones.

I was really worried about that too but it worked just fine! There must be a return option if something is wrong with it right? Just be careful with the film. Idk what happened maybe the heat? Some of the pics were sort of striped...

I commented in detail below under flitlock's answer but one thing to look for would be a updated product picture. A great price won't matter if you get an expired product and poor customer service. Call and talk to vendors so you don't have a problem. I did and I feel good about my decision.

If it's not affecting the picture I wouldn't worry about it. I haven't noticed it on mine. The only bright area is around the edges when I have the brightness up.

Yes, you can still see the image still. You get the option to get an extra image when you purchase the product.

It did not happen to me, but if it did I would get the Sharper Image phone number for technical support and ask them. They should replace it for free if you bought it recently. I believe there is a guarantee. Hope it helps, Laura

I didn't own the camera for long. The camera malfunctioned before I could install it. They have little to no help avaliable. The colors seemed to be a little darker,but not washed out. I hope this information is helpful .

Well they should update the picture then. Kinda leaves you thinking that there may be old stock out there and you may get stuck with it by chance.

I bought mine last summer. It has faded just a bit; otherwise it's still beautiful, and all lights and parts are working.

There is usaully an expiration date on the box. The film will often work past the expiration date but the colors will be more dull. That's my experience with it.

I am assuming you are referring the the current model of this product pictured- as this is an ancient picture and amazon should update to the modern picture current version. There is only one original being produced - only old pictures and listings on amazon.

LadyR,Try several DVD's. It may be that the discs you're playing are the problem. It seems to me that if there's not enough info on the disc, when it upgrades the picture it fills in the blanks with "noise", which makes the pic look grainy. Just a hunch, but most of my discs look great with no adjustment now.

The package I received was not from January 2013. I believe that is the date the product was ever available on Amazon in general. I purchased this product, and my daughter used it and her pictures turned out wonderfully. We have them hung all over her bedroom. She loves them. The package I purchased came from Amazon.com LLC. I would recommend this item.

Hi Allison, I had the same problem! When I ordered, I noted that the picture DID stay on the color I wanted- so I ordered using the picture- and hoped for the best. It worked! We are delighted with this cushion experts/blazing needles purchase. It looks great and is uber comfortable!

The white ghost image on my set appears on the V logo. It is very slight when the logo leaves. It takes awhile for the actual picture to come on, but I have no ghost image when it does. Sorry to hear about your set. i could not be any happier with the picture quality.

Mine is holding up wonderfully no hair loss, and the print has now worn off. I do suspect that the print will eventually will wear off!

I have never experienced any problem with it - color remains as vibrant as it was before using it. Love it!!!!
